Hey, if you enter the market late, don't expect to be handed a level playing field on your terms.

I don't agree that they could have easily (even if they wanted to) thrown money at it and compete. If you enter the market you cannot simply undercut everybody else and be free and clear. Especially if you try to match or undercut Amazon's loss leaders. It is okay to have loss leaders as long as you make up for it elsewhere (and not with iphones either, but with books). Predatory pricing is still bad for antitrust.
